Heart failure means that the heart is unable to pump enough blood throughout the body—without proper blood supply, the rest of the body can’t receive enough oxygen and nutrients to function properly
Heart Failure
CUIMC/NYP has performed more than 2,500 heart transplants since opened its heart transplant program in 1977—we currently perform about 60 adult and 30 pediatric heart transplants every year
Heart Transplant
A ventricular assist device (VAD) or left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is a surgically implanted pump that supports the heart of patients with advanced heart failure
Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs)
Cardiac Sarcoidosis is a rare disease characterized by the growth of tiny clusters of cells called granulomas within heart tissue, causing inflammation and disrupting normal heart function
Cardiac Sarcoidosis
The Center for Advanced Cardiac Care, in collaboration with CUIMC's Cardio-Oncology Program, is experienced in providing care for cancer patients with heart failure
Cardio-Oncology
Cardiogenic shock is a sudden and life-threatening condition where the heart cannot pump enough blood to the vital organs in the body, and commonly occurs as a result of a severe heart attack
Cardiogenic Shock

Cardiac amyloidosis is a serious condition that develops when an abnormal protein called amyloid builds up in the heart, interfering with its ability to pump blood
Cardiac Amyloidosis
Pulmonary hypertension is high blood pressure in the blood vessels of the lungs—this can cause difficulties for the heart's right side due to the excess resistance in pumping blood through the lungs.
